Collaborative Projects 2018-2019

5th grade novel studies

Fifth graders chose some of their favorite novels and created their own google sites highlighting those novels.

Stop motion Projects

Fifth graders wrapped up their space unit by creating stop motion projects about patterns and how objects move in the sky.

Google Tour Builder Project

I collaborated with 5th grade Science to teach the students how to create a tour builder in Google Tour Builder using Google Earth. Students created a virtual tour of real locations that have evidence of weathering and erosion. Click the picture on the left to view some of the projects. This project was also featured in the Instructional Technology Blog

Buncee Food Web Project

I collaborated with 5th grade Science to teach the students how to create an interactive food web in Buncee. Students then chose one portion of the food web to eliminate and explained how that would impact the ecosystem.

Research for 5th grade

5th Grade Research Project

In January, I collaborated with the fifth grade teachers to introduce research. We discussed how to research effectively, how to organize our information and how to cite our sources. This document was used to assist with teaching.

First Grade Weather Unit

During the time that first grade was learning about weather, we used the green screen in the library to create our own weather forecasts.

Technology Integration in the Library

Storybird

Storybird was a hit in both 3rd and 4th grade.

We used it to write poetry as well as to write our own original stories.

E-portfolios

Through our library time, students in 4th and 5th grade have all had time to learn about the purpose of their portfolio, what type of work to include in a portfolio and how to personalize it.

Ozobots

We have used Ozobots to start to learn the basics of coding. These robots are great for working on sequencing and following directions. They are also a great tool to teach creativity and perseverance.

Flipgrid

Flipgrid has been a great response tool for students to use. We've used it for the following:

book recommendations
book connections
sharing our own stories with an author

We have reached beyond the walls of the library this year and zoomed with the following:

5th grade - Lady Bird Johnson Middle School - Net Zero
